Kalciphoz's RPG Mod
This work is derived from https://forums.terraria.org/index.php?threads/kalciphozs-rpg-mod.63348/
This mod aims to overhaul Terraria by adding RPG elements, and includes a leveling system, an item upgrade system, an elemental damage system, procedurally generated weapons, and much more. For more detailed information, see the wiki.
Features The mod features a leveling system with XP and level display, and rewards you with stat points when leveling up. In order to compensate for gradually increasing player strength, enemies have seen a drastic power increase, especially later in the game.
To further emphasize these changes, I have added prefixes to armour and overhauled accessory prefixes to provide these new stats, including accuracy, leech, critical strike damage multiplier, evasion, and more.
Enemies drop weapons, many of which are procedurally generated. To compensate for the consumption of inventory space, you now have two additional pages of inventory, giving you 80 extra slots. Weapons and enemies now deal elemental damage, which has a chance to inflict elemental status ailments - powerful combat-related debuffs.
I have also added an item system to upgrade weapons. It primarily serves as an item sink, since in a modded playthrough, it is very common for the player to have more weapons than needed. The upgrade system gambles your weapon at a risk of destruction and at a cost. Rare upgrade crowns make this process less painful and protect weapons you hold dear.
Installation The mod can be found in the Mod Browser of tModLoader. You can search for the mod or find it by its icon. Alternatively, you can download it here. Simply move it in the Mods directory at Documents/My Games/Terraria/ModLoader/Mods
Special thanks goes to raydeejay, Mirsario, jopojelly and bluemagic123 for helping me fix bugs during the mods development. I want to thank also Mirsario, Alena, HellPhoenix, Jofairden, NuovaPrime, Snorlaxxo, Hozlocos, Mop Guy, Randie Marsh, and Robbie for being my beta testers and for helping me stay motivated. Art and code was made by me, but I would like to credit the tModLoader dev team with making that possible in the first place.
If I have forgotten anybody from this list, I sincerely apologize. Please inform me and I will correct it asap.
Open Source The mod is open source. The source code can be acquired by three means: Going to the github page here, or by using ModLoader to decompile it, or by using ILSpy. Any of my content may be used, but please give proper attribution (credits) and if using a larger part of my mod (such as a major mechanic), please refer people to the original.

Tweaked in patch:
- Quickness now only provides half as much crit chance, except for the first few points
- Potency now provides less life leech and critical strike multiplier.
- Ground enemies now move faster, making them more dangerous.
- NPC damage scaling now has a cap to prevent ridiculous post-endgame damage numbers with mods like Calamity Taken together, these changes severely curtail the survivability of offensive builds as well as their offence itself. This should encourage players to allocate more points to Resilience, which was previously drastically underused
- Upgrading crowns now have much higher drop chance
- Item upgrades cost a bit more currency
- Improved handling of enemy projectile damage somewhat
- Hotbar now looks different, less buggy in MP and more in line with the general aesthetic of the mod
